  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

For the Garlic Butter Rolls

  • 1 12-pack King’s Hawaiian Original Sweet Rolls
  • 4 tbsp Salted Butter (melted)
  • 2 cloves Garlic (grated)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
  • 1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Fresh Parsley (finely minced)
  • 1 pinch Kosher Salt
  • 1/3 cup Olive Oil

For the Dipping Sauce

  • 1 recipe Parmesan Cream Sauce (homemade or prepared Alfredo sauce as shortcut)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Parmesan Cream Sauce: Begin by making a Parmesan cream sauce from scratch using your favorite recipe or use fresh Alfredo sauce as a time-saving alternative.
  2. Prepare the Rolls: Gently pull apart the King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls and carefully cut off the edges to expose their soft, fluffy interior.
  3. Make the Garlic Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted salted butter, grated garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, minced fresh parsley, kosher salt, and olive oil until fully emulsified and combined.
  4. Coat the Rolls: Dip each roll into the garlic butter mixture, ensuring all sides are generously coated. Work in two batches to manage the dipping process more easily.
  5. Cook the Rolls: Place half of the coated rolls into a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook each side for a few minutes until the rolls turn crisp and golden brown, turning them as needed for even cooking.
  6. Repeat Cooking: Remove the first batch from the skillet and repeat the toasting process with the remaining rolls, ensuring all rolls become toasted and golden.
  7. Serve: Once all rolls are crispy and golden, remove from heat and immediately serve warm alongside the creamy Parmesan dipping sauce for an indulgent appetizer experience.

Notes

  • For a shortcut, use store-bought Alfredo sauce instead of making Parmesan cream sauce from scratch.
  • Be careful not to burn the garlic during the toasting step; medium heat works best for even browning.
  • Using a cast iron skillet helps achieve a crispy exterior on the rolls.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the warm, melty texture combined with the creamy dip.
  • These rolls make a great party appetizer or side for Italian-themed meals.
